"It's a high-tempo game that you try to play with a good forecheck. Playing good defense usually gets you the puck back so you can head the other way," Kings goaltending coach Bill Ranford said. "If you watch the Devils in the playoffs, it's kind of the same for them. They play solid defense that creates their offensive opportunities."
